BLEACH : Storytime Volume 07

With the anime returning next year, the misconceptions, personal opinions everyone have about Bleach and some hate that it gets, I thought it would be great to have a re-read with Zig Forums. It's a series that i adore with all of it's flaws and shortcomings from beginning to end. Let's hope everyone is able to put their personal biases aside and can read the manga for what Kubo was trying to tell and then give their opinion on that at the end. Besides, it's been years since the manga ended and many forgot the details, so it would be good to refresh our memory before watching the anime next year. Maybe your opinion on the series could change, becoming more positive or negative.

Nice background

You make it sound like Kubo's problems later in the series were not on full display from chapter 1.

Renji was almost villainous in his introduction.

Kubo hadn't formulated the rest of his story at this point. The Gotei 13 hadn't been thought up yet. Which is even more amazing for how good early Bleach was as it was Kubo literally flying by the seat of his pants.

>The Gotei 13 hadn't been thought up yet.
They clearly were, we see a short cameo from Ukitake in volume 3. Even in the last volume Renji calls Byakuya Captain. Kubo probably hadn't thought of their dress code that will distinguish them but saying he didn't plan anything is outright false.
